Abstract: This paper provides an overview of blood flow in the arterial system and aims to estimate the blood velocity from cerebral angiography scans without having acquired data on velocity by using Murray's Law. The estimation technique post-processes the scan and provides crucial 3D visual data for the development of a visualization program of the blood flow in the human brain.
